This is an incredibly difficult time for many in our community. If you or someone you know needs help, we are sharing a list of trusted resources below:

The Attorney General’s Office "encourages Minnesotans to share stories of what they themselves have personally experienced or witnessed due to the presence of DHS — including Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) — or stories of what people they are close to and in direct contact with have experienced."

This form is "for reporting incidents or effects related to or caused by recent federal actions in Minnesota, including but not limited to: violations of constitutional rights (racial profiling, excessive force, retaliation against protestors, observers, and media), business closures, reduced healthcare access, reduced education access, other issues impacting public safety and civil liberties, federal funding cuts, federal grant terminations, terms and conditions tied to federal program participation, other administrative actions by Federal agencies.

The information you provide may be used by the AGO to support its current lawsuit challenging the DHS surge, as well as future actions to enforce the law. The Minnesota Attorney General's Office intends to investigate matters reported to it for the purpose of defending and enforcing Minnesota’s laws and defending the State of Minnesota against actions that violate the State’s rights under the Constitution and applicable federal law.

This form is for reporting incidents or effects related to or caused by federal actions in Minnesota, such as business closures, reduced healthcare access, or use of physical force.

We are angered and devastated by the events this week, including the murder of a woman during a federal ICE operation in Minneapolis.

We are also heartbroken for our hardworking, kindhearted clients and community members who are being terrorized by this occupation.

For our clients and immigrant community, please note:

• An employment authorization document (work permit) alone will no longer protect you from ICE detention.
• A Social Security number will not protect you from ICE detention.
• A deferred action grant will no longer protect you from ICE detention.
• A pending immigration application will not protect you from ICE detention.
• Having no criminal history will not protect you from ICE detention.
• Long-term residence in Minnesota or the United States will not protect you.
• Having a U.S. citizen spouse or U.S. citizen children will not protect you from ICE detention.

This week, we have spoken to countless heartbroken family members who are unable to locate their loved ones — days after they were taken by ICE. Paperwork, family ties, and humanity are being ignored.

The point is cruelty.

Under this continued ICE occupation, Minnesota is not safe for immigrants — and this level of unchecked enforcement makes it dangerous for all Minnesota residents.

Estamos indignados y devastados por los eventos de esta semana, incluida la muerte de una mujer durante un operativo federal de ICE en Minneapolis.

También estamos con el corazón roto por nuestros clientes y miembros de la comunidad inmigrante — trabajadores, de buen corazón — que ahora están siendo aterrorizados por esta ocupación.

Para nuestros clientes y la comunidad inmigrante, tengan en cuenta:

• Un documento de autorización de empleo por sí solo ya no los protege de la detención por ICE.
• Un número de Seguro Social no los protege de la detención por ICE.
• Una concesión de acción diferida ya no los protege de la detención por ICE.
• Una solicitud de inmigración pendiente no los protege de la detención por ICE.
• No tener antecedentes penales no los protege de la detención por ICE.
• La residencia prolongada en Minnesota o en Estados Unidos no los protege de la detención por ICE.
• Tener un esposo/a o hijos ciudadanos estadounidenses no los protege de la detención por ICE.

Esta semana hemos hablado con muchas familias desconsoladas que no pueden localizar a sus seres queridos — días después de que ICE se los llevara detenidos. Los documentos, los lazos familiares y la humanidad están siendo ignorados.

El punto es la crueldad.

Bajo esta ocupación continua de ICE, Minnesota no es un lugar seguro para los inmigrantes — y este nivel de aplicación sin control pone en peligro a todos los residentes de Minnesota.

It’s difficult to get people to show up for court when they fear being detained by ICE and deported. This reality effectively denies them the ability to exercise their legal rights. The presumption of innocence has become meaningless for many, as not everyone is afforded the basic right to defend themselves in court when facing criminal charges.

One would think that someone with extensive experience in both criminal and civil courts would appreciate the fundamental right to a fair defense.

For many, the threat of deportation means being torn away from their U.S. citizen children who depend on them for both care and financial support. These individuals would also leave behind jobs they worked tirelessly to maintain—jobs that won’t easily be filled. Many of my clients juggle multiple jobs to provide for their families here and abroad.

ICE agents arrested immigrants at the Hennepin County courthouse as part of President Donald Trump’s deportation policies.

Having certified and skilled interpreters in our courts is essential. The interpreter compensation system and new changes are an insult. These interpreters are the only way for most of our clients to have access to the justice system and to be treated fairly. I have seen what happens when interpreters aren't qualified and it's not pretty. Please support our amazing court interpreters.

The interpreters sent a letter to State Court Administrator Jeff Shorba saying that a new compensation policy is "entirely unacceptable."

Listen to this interview on MPR about Latino Lawyer Camp. Attorney Erica Davis from Davis and Egberg, PLLC volunteered as co-director for the camp. You can hear directly from one of our students about her experience at the camp.

MPR News Host Emily Bright spoke with Jorge Saavedra, one of the attorneys behind the camp, and Soli Rangel, a graduate of this year’s camp and a rising ninth grader at Minnetonka High School.

In June, attorney Erica Davis volunteered to run Latino Lawyer Camp along with attorneys Jorge Saavedra and Tamara Caban Ramirez. Months of volunteer hours went into planning and executing the camp and it was a huge success! Please read the article below to learn more about it. If you're interested in volunteering or donating to the camp, please let us know. If you know any 8th graders, let them know about the next Camp in June 2024.

How can Latino students prepare for admission to law school? A Minnesota summer camp programs invites teenagers to see themselves as lawyers—and plan for high school success.
